REC Watches Mark I
Based in Copenhagen, REC is a young watch brand that incorporates a radically different approach to the art of creating wristwatches, by handpicking historically iconic objects and recycling them into charming new timepieces. Inspired by the classic elliptical dashboard of the Mark I Minis, the REC Mark I watch is a tribute to one of the most characteristic elements of the little iconic car.
As the very first Mini to hit the pavement on a larger scale, the Mark I has in many ways become synonymous with the joyful 60’s, and was a favourite among both celebrities and the working class.
Here REC transfers the elliptical shape of the dashboard to the design of this timepiece, such that it encircles the two chronographs, providing a “dashboard within the watch”.
The remaining dial is produced exclusively from recycled Mini metal, and will feature very distinct and visible imperfections, providing an altogether unique feel to the watch.
